Wasted Years: Can SPEED Save Jamaica This Time?

For over 30 years, Jamaicans have been promised real public sector reform. From the 1999 Orane Report to today’s SPEED initiative (Streamlining Processes for Efficiency and Economic Development), the goal has remained the same: to cut waste, reduce bureaucracy, and make government work for the people. But will SPEED finally succeed where others failed?

This powerful documentary-style video explores Jamaica’s decades-long struggle with inefficiency, waste, and red tape. Waste in government is a big concern for Jamaicans. We trace the story from Douglas Orane’s 1990s task force to the 2025 SPEED initiative led by Ambassador Audrey Marks. We reveal what went wrong in the past, why reform fatigue has set in, and what is at stake for ordinary Jamaicans today.

From faster business permits to lower costs of living, from digital services to diaspora investment, SPEED has the potential to transform not just government but everyday life. But it also faces serious risks: skepticism, the digital divide, and entrenched bureaucratic culture.

This isn’t just about policies. It’s about dignity, fairness, and whether Jamaica will finally deliver on promises made for decades. SPEED could inspire reform across the Caribbean—or become another chance wasted.

Join us as we ask the hard question: after 30 years wasted, can SPEED save Jamaica this time?
